As soon as I heard Su Xiaolin's words, I immediately asked him, "What's wrong?" ”

He took a few deep breaths and said in a trembling voice, "Something happened to the funeral." ”

I was stunned, something happened to the funeral? Could it be the old witch's funeral? I asked him, "What's the situation?" ”

He said, "Brother-in-law, didn't you ask me to do the funeral for my parents, I took some money today and bought some things for the funeral." I don't know what's going on, I went home and calculated the accounts, and the money spent was actually seventy-seven thousand seven hundred and seventy-seven, brother-in-law, do you say this is a coincidence or...? ”

Hearing this, I was confused, the same is true of the old witch's funeral? Is this a coincidence? Or does it portend something?

At that moment, I told him not to worry, and said, "I encountered the same situation as you, the money to buy funeral supplies for Mengke is all seven." ”

As I spoke, I remembered the hotel and asked him, "Wantana Hotel belongs to your Su family, did you say anything to the hotel manager?" ”

He was stunned, looked at me suspiciously, and said: "No, the hotel is run by my father at a loss, the purpose is to facilitate the villagers of Wanta, and the annual profit is negative, and I rarely go once a year." ”

"Operating at a loss?" I asked, confused.

He nodded and said, "Father is known as the richest person in the entire Phoenix City, and the Ten Thousand Towers are my father's roots, so he opened a hotel here for the convenience of the residents here. Therefore, in terms of the pricing of dishes, it is close to the cost price, which is basically unprofitable, and my father will pay his employees a sum of money every year. ”

I understand what he means, we also have this kind of person, some rich people make money outside, so they want to go back to their hometown to make some contributions. For example, to build roads and bridges and build schools, take a person near my village as an example, when that person was more than 90 years old, he won a lottery ticket, more than 1 million yuan, returned to his hometown, installed a telephone for each person in the village, and built a cement road for the village.

However, there are very few such actions to open hotels to facilitate villagers. However, I didn't think much about the special nature of the Ten Thousand Towers. After all, the atmosphere is different in each place, and perhaps the villagers here need a hotel more.

Subsequently, I asked him why the hotel was only less than 200 yuan, and he said that the hotel should only charge the cost price, and as for the more than 200 yuan, it was because I was a foreigner, and I planned to charge some manual fees and make a tooth sacrifice.

After listening to his words, I became more and more uneasy in my heart, and I always felt that something would happen to this funeral, and for a while, I was stunned at the door, not knowing what to do at all.

When Su Xiaolin saw that I didn't speak, he said, "Brother-in-law, what's going on with the expenses?" How are there so many sevens? ”

I thought for a moment and said, "Maybe it's a coincidence, you can just go back to the funeral first." By the way, don't bury your parents together, they are not right before they died, and it is easy to have accidents when they are buried together, in addition, Mengke will have a funeral tomorrow morning and a funeral in the evening, you take the time to come over and send Mengke up the mountain. ”

He seemed to be a little unconvinced of my words, glanced at my face for a while, and said, "Brother-in-law, you didn't lie to me?" What a coincidence? ”

I hummed, and I didn't want to talk to him anymore, one is that he is a student, and it is useless to tell him, it is better to let him do the funeral for the old witch and them with peace of mind, and second, he called the police to yin me before, which made me a little wary of him, to put it bluntly, I just don't believe him.

Seeing that I was not in high spirits, he didn't ask again, so he talked to me a few more words about Mengke's funeral, roughly speaking, as a mother's family, what things should he buy and what etiquette should he do.

I didn't answer him to this question, so I asked him to talk to someone and not ask me. He asked me why, and I said, "Have you ever seen a master ask for something from his mother's family?"

He sighed, and said that he would come back early tomorrow morning to attend the funeral, and then turned around and walked towards Su's house.

After he left, my face sank, and there was such a shocking coincidence in the cost of the two funerals, I am afraid that something big was going to happen. What is maddening is that at present, this situation does not know how to break it at all, and can only develop arbitrarily without help.

At this moment, two people walked not far away, and when they raised their eyes, they were Shi Liu Ma Wizard, and the two of them were walking and chatting, and they were walking towards me.

As soon as I saw them, I felt like I was grasping at a life-saving straw, and immediately greeted them, and said, "Mrs. Shi, who are you?" ”

She smiled at me and said, "We went home and discussed, and gave Su Mengke 14,000 yuan. ”

As she spoke, she pulled out a stack of bills and handed it to me.

I was not polite, immediately took the money, and couldn't wait to tell her about the funeral expenses.

After hearing this, she frowned and said in a deep voice, "It's all seven? Even Qiao Lian'er's funeral expenses are seven? ”

I nodded and asked her, "You've been through a lot, I wonder if you've ever encountered something similar before?" ”

She stopped, "I have lived for more than forty years, and I have never seen such a strange thing, but it is unlucky to have so many seven in the funeral expenses, and Su Mengke is unwilling after his death, I am afraid that this funeral is a little difficult to handle." ”

Hearing her say this, my mood fell to the bottom, and I was about to speak, when Shi Liu patted me on the shoulder and said, "Chen Jiu, don't be discouraged, this situation may also be a coincidence, after all, if you spend money usually, you will also encounter this situation." ”

I hummed, just talked to her casually, and told her the time of the funeral and the time of the funeral, and let her come over then.

Soon, the stone willow and the hemp wizard left, and they answered the right words, coming and going in a hurry.

With them gone, my nerves tensed, and I felt that something would definitely happen to Mengke's funeral.

At this point, I clenched my fists, raised my eyes and looked around, unconsciously, the sky had darkened, on the left side of the mourning hall, there was a group of people building a stage, the stage was not particularly large, about three or four squares, Lang Gao was standing on the side, occasionally looking at me.

"Five cylinders!" I shouted at Lang.

That Lang Gao snorted, and immediately ran towards me, and before I could speak, he asked me: "Chen Jiu, is it Su Xiaolin's ghost?" ”

I shook my head and said, "Probably not, something similar happened at the old witch's funeral." ”

"No, it won't!" He exclaimed, "How so? Could it really be that Miss Su is portending something to us? ”

I sighed, my mind was very messy, and I couldn't say anything to him, so I talked a few words at random, basically asking him to watch the drama troupe, and not let the drama troupe have an accident.

After he said yes, he asked me: "Chen Jiu, the funeral will be held tomorrow evening, where are you going to dig Miss Su's grave?" ”
